Yesterday I said goodbye to south Florida and open up yet another chapter in my life. I finally moved into the townhouse with Alyssa and I totally love it. For the first time since moving out of my parent’s house I feel settled and I don’t have to worry about shitty roommates and bad living situations. I can finally focus on other things. Classes ( Read more... )

I’m an incredibly lucky person and I have always known that but I think I just recently came to appreciate it like I have never done before. I’m genuinely happy and excited about life. I think for the first time in quite a long time I have taken a moment to breathe this summer and really evaluate the things in life that mean the most to me. I’ve ( Read more... )

I’m bored and thus feel the need to write about pointless stuff. I’m also a little bummed, partly due to the fact that I am on my period and thus my hormones are out of whack. The other reason I am bummed is because Todd is on an amazing vacation in the upper peninsula of Michigan about 2000 miles away and I couldn’t go because my job would not ( Read more... )

Once again I am reminded how fragile life is and how quickly things can change. I found out a few days ago my fathers mother whom I refer to has Nannie has been diagnosed with lung cancer. I can’t say I was at all surprised. She has had quadruple bypass surgery and breast cancer and yet she still continued to smoke. Not being surprised though does ( Read more... )

I haven’t written in this journal for nearly 3 months, mostly because I don’t feel the need to. I used to feel a need to spill my guts onto internet oblivion for some reason. I guess I have grown up a lot since I first started writing in this journal 4 years ago. And while it holds many memories, both good and bad, I don’t feel a strong connection ( Read more... )

Every time I promise myself I am going to write I get distracted by something or just can’t seem to get my words out. So spring break was definitely an interesting week. I’m just going to equate it to lessons learned and leave it at that. Hopefully next year I can get away for spring break and take a real vacation. I’m also really excited to move ( Read more... )

I knew my past would eventually catch up with me and whether I was ready for it or not last night I came face to face with it. It turned out better than I thought it would even though it was very awkward. I realize how much people can change in such a short time and how much I have changed. I have my confidence back, my dreams within reach and my ( Read more... )

So its spring break and it couldn’t have come at a better time. I really needed a break from school and work not to mention I was itching to visit home. And man have I missed the beach and South Florida shopping. Gainesville just doesn’t compare to all the discount stores we have here. Anyway Todd and I are doing absolutely amazing. I’m totally ( Read more... )

My Valentine’s Day came a day early. Todd surprised me after bowling league last night with my gifts, and to be honest it felt so much more special a day early. I got lots of dark chocolate and a teddy bear. All I really needed was him though. It’s the first Valentine’s Day I have felt completely at peace. He is such an amazing guy and the best ( Read more... )

its a wonderful 28 degrees outside. I can be legitimately cold at this point. Hot chocolate is my best friend today. I'm not complaining about the cold weather or anything i just thought you should all know that its cold outside. :)
